"All in all, I did enjoy every second I spent in the game, from the visually stunning, to the painfully difficult moments spawning over and over. And something tells me that Halo 5 has a long life ahead of it. "
Halo 5 is collecting nines like a kid collects candy on halloween.
343 has indeed ensured a long, long, long life for halo 5.
It appears from all reports that the Elite controller is a runaway success and ppl are definitely voting with their wallets.
Guess the $150 price and replaceable batteries was the right choice.

MS makes more money in gaming revenue.
So, no, MS gaming division does not require any help, they are already pulling in more money.
Nice list
A lot of really great games on the list
Best of all, if you couldn't let go of some of these great games, then you can play them for FREE on X1; or get them used.
Awesome addition to the x1 library, and it's only the beginning.
Great to see CD going back to what made the original games so fun.
Outstanding deal
And a fantastic list of games to choose from (for free)
Exactly
You have astutely noted how, despite this article being about fallout, most comments are about TombRaider.
It's clear that TombRaider is on most ppls minds, so much so that they don't want to talk about fallout.
On the plus side, the Major doesn't have to worry about any frame rate issues.
Interesting to see the difference between consoles, when compared to the previous "10 best" article.
This really shows the success of Kinect. It was bundled but so where other games on the competitions console, and none of those made the list in the last article.
360 has 3 times as many exclusives as the last article on the PS3 as well, a testament to the phenomenon that is Halo. Halo 5 has only been out a week but has outsold almost every other c...
Big Team Battle has been one of my favourites
Really like to see all the vehicular battles.
Also like the open areas, although you can still get into tight quarter in many areas of past maps.
These 2 spent a lot of time talking about Halo 5 sales numbers but never mentioned the primary point of the UK sales they spoke of...
#1
Halo 5 was #1 in the UK, over other games that launched on multiple platforms.
To say nothing of the $400,000,000 in announced revenue
Interesting comparison
here's another way to look at it:
One, according to the manufacturer will cost about the same as a console, ergo doubling the cost of ones investment in gaming setup.
The other adds nothing to ones cost and could be the benchmark for all other games to strive to beat.
To each his own I guess
Personally, I would find having no AAA exclusives during the Holidays ", how did you say it..."cringeworthy"
"Right now there are 516 titles, and the majority of them are indie titles — 264 are indie games while 252 have been published by major publishers."
X1 is about to go up by 135+games via Backward Compatibility
there are some great indie titles like Ori and Limbo, but looking t indie as a whole..how many Minecraft clones are out there for every Ori?
IMO a great 360 library, along with the great X1 line-up, has more value to me than a...
Still getting the malware screen, but one can still get to the article other ways:
“I think people are really looking forward to what we’re doing with Crackdown 3, and the best thing about Crackdown 3 is the fact that not only we have gameplay advances, but we have technology advances. When you think about a first party game, whether it’s 24 player multiplayer, wheter it’s dynamic rendering, whether it’s server destruction, these are things that first party games should go do...
That should be the next test they do
Connect an external Hybrid HDD, if you are right it would be 6x faster.
Either way, the NXOE is the Ferrari of UI
Not true
Halo 4 had 2 scores in the 50s and 1 20
Halo Reach had a score in the 50s
No Halo 5 scores are less than 60
Halo is held to a different standard to some I see
Apparently Halo must have achieved GOD-like status
Good to know it holds GOD status by doing $400,000,000 in sales the first week
That's what 77 out of 83 reviews say.
I wish I could read the review but my computer comes up "susupected malware site"
great score
I'd like to read the review but my computer says it's a known malware site.
nevertheless, another 9 to a growing list of scores weighted toward the high end of the scale.
ROFL
Let me choice a review since the site comes up as malware:
New York Daily times..100
Gaming Trend...100
Dark Zero...100
Brash games..100
Gaming Age...100
The fact of the matter is low scores are almost non existant
scores in the:
60s...2
70s...5
80s...44
90s -100...32
Th...
The 360 really delivered, to think it's about to celebrate it's 10th birthday.
Still one can clearly see the difference in the hair, rock textures, missing fog, etc
Looks like real winner regardless of platform though.
Not long to wait now.
